Carrie Underwood Ready For Football
The new season open for NBC’s Sunday Night Football featuring Carrie Underwood and several NFL players will debut on Sunday, Sept. 8th when the Steelers take on the Patriots beginning at 8:20 p.m.
We already know the show open will feature rocker Joan Jett, who makes an appearance during Carrie’s performance, but now we can confirm the list of NFL players includes:
• Chicago Bears LB Khalil Mack • Cleveland Browns QB Baker Mayfield
• Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott • Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes
• Los Angeles Rams QB Jared Goff • Seattle Seahawks QB Russell Wilson
This season marks Carrie’s seventh consecutive SNF show open.
“I love being the voice of Sunday Night Football because I grew up watching football . . . from birth. I’m from Oklahoma – we’re a football state. There’s just something about being at a live sporting event or watching it on TV. There’s an excitement to it that really, it’s unlike anything else, so it’s been so wonderful working with everybody at SNF, and I count myself very lucky and very blessed that I get to be a small part of something that I’ve loved my whole life.”
